RE: [PHP] Global Variables Off

I am passing it via URL as: http://example.org/test.php?test=foo When I do that call to $_GET["test"] shows that variable is not set, however, when I run phpinfo() it shows value assigned to _GET. With no change in code, I turn global variables 'on' and the same page works..

Try this. Create a test script called test.php that looks like this: <? echo "<p>The test variable is [" . $_GET["test"] . "]</p>"; ?> Assuming this script is located at http://example.org/test.php, access this page using a URL like this: http://example.org/test.php?test=foo Chris Paul wrote: >Ok, I have turned global vars off and I have replaced my old >$HTTP_GET_VARS with $_GET[] but I seem to not get the values passed.
